Following his high school education, Toby worked in the oil industry, but due to the rapid decline in that industry he was soon made redundant. He tried the career of an American football player, but didn’t make the big time. Then Keith focused on music, and through tremendous efforts he managed to get a copy of his recordings to the executive of Mercury Record, Harold Shedd who signed Keith to a contract. That was just what Toby Keith needed, and in 1993 he recorded his first single “Should’ve Been a Cowboy” which was the first step towards a very successful career, as well as the basis to his net worth.

In the 1990s, he released five studio albums which all entered Billboard of Country Music Top 20, and all received certifications for sales. The 2000s were even better, as all eight studio albums reached 1st or 2nd positions on Billboard of Country Music Top 100 and were in the first ten positions of the main music chart as well, and all were certified for sales. In the 2010s, he has released four studio albums and all have appeared in the first three positions of Billboard of Country Music Top 100. Such fantastic success has added significant revenues to the overall size of Toby Keith’s net worth. It is worth mentioning that now the artist owns rich discography containing 60 singles, 17 studio albums, four compilation albums and 49 music videos. He has also organised 16 concert tours to promote his songs. His net worth has continued to grow accordingly.

More, he starred together with Rodney Carrington and Willie Nelson in the comedy film “Beer for My Horses” (2008) directed by Michael Salomon, co-written and co-produced by Toby Keith himself.
